wow the article in the the NYT is down right scary! Some of the proposals are really out there.

This is absurd, absolutely absurd. The patient is dying, and we have now decided to throw a sheet over him.

Maybe 'they' won't notice, at least until the stench is overwhelming.

Mark-to-model will hang over our heads like a guillotine, mark my words. Toxic debt holders will lever and adjust "earnings" based off of proprietary model valuations, the debt will continue to non-perform, and more losses will be had.

Maybe the taxpayers will get lucky, and have the privelege of paying 75 cents for something that was worth 3 pennies under mark-to-market, just 2 weeks ago. I had a feeling that this was going to happen.
